Overcapture Video -- Dance Dance Revolution Extreme (while juggling)
Song: 桜 (Sakura) [Heavy] (Artist: Reven-G)
Difficulty: 10

Taken with a GoPro Fusion 360 camera in 3K/60. Overcapture mode allows for a stitched-together subset of the full 360° recording, which gives you a really broad fisheye composition.

Another classic from Naoki Maeda -- this was a 10 on DDR Extreme, and it's certainly tricky to AAA. To pass, it's super easy, especially for a demoted 10. So the new rating of 13 on the X scale feels a bit like a sleight to those finishing this on Extreme. There are a few spots in the song that make it extremely annoying to get -- during the first slowdown, the gradual slowdown into the freeze makes the two notes going into the freeze late and then early. The arrow in the middle of nowhere (Left arrow) is weird, and then the right arrow into the continued patterns is often easy to mess up after that. My gallops were often pretty stale after that arrow, so I was having trouble keeping with the gallops on a few runs. Then the final gradual slowdown with the run -- the third set of 4 was giving me some problems initially, then the fourth set of 4. The final arrows never gave me a problem -- those were just visual, but yeah, getting there with 0 about a dozen times and hoping I'd hit the slowdown wasn't an amazing strategy. Finally got it here, though!

Some of the arrows on newer mixes of Sakura are fixed, which is a plus. The "better polling rate" lol of the newest mixes also may justify the 13 rating. But here on Extreme, Bag and Sakura are big pains, and they're definitely harder to get than most of the 9s (probably the only exception being Burning Heat, with Tsugaru halfway up there, too).

If you have requests within the games that I still play, or if you have a game that you'd like to request, feel free to request it. I usually have a pretty busy schedule, but I try to make time to relax and play some of these games.
